"Entoni showed up early, ready to work! He worked efficiently and carefully. I asked for a patch on tiles that needed to be replaced. He communicated with me every step of the way to ensure I would have a job that I loved. Unfortunately, my original tiles are discontinued, so we talked about sizes that would work best. Entoni did an excellent job on the patch and gave me a reasonable price. Entoni communicates with you to make sure that he job he does is to your satisfaction. I would recommend him for any tiling project and will use him again for any future work I need done."

"After having my existing floors refinished very poorly by another company, I knew I would not be using them to sand and stain brand new unfinished hardwood that I had installed in the rest of my house. I had called Sal based on a recommendation from a contractor. He came to my house the same day and gave me a very reasonable estimate shortly after he left. He was very responsive and easily reachable for any questions I had before and during the work. His crew was neat, effective and did a beautiful job on my new floors. My only regret is not calling Sal sooner and hiring him for the first job. I would highly recommend him and his company and I plan on using them to redo the terrible job that was done on my other floors."

"The installation of the appliances was particularly challenging in our 1973 house, because Victor was presented with several unanticipated challenges. He rose to the occasion and solved every challenge beautifully."

"My thanks to all of the people who already wrote reviews of Marble Effects. Their good reviews made me consider, and then hire Marble Effects. It was a good choice. I donâ t write quick and dirty reviews. I try to anticipate what I as a reader would really like/need to know and I try to answer those questions/issues. We needed three tiling issues: A stall shower in a small bathroom had to be totally removed/demolished and a new one installed. There was a leak in the tile on the wall with the plumbing fixtures of a tub/shower in a hall bathroom that needed to be dealt with. The master bathroom stall shower needed to be regrouted, and the seams recaulked. When we began, we got proposals from a couple of tile installers, one of whom had been recommended by our long time plumber, who we trust implicitly. His proposal was professional, but he wanted to make a mountain out of a molehill. The work he wanted to do was more than any other proposer. And he absolutely refused to give us a proposal that included the cost of the tile, and refused to even tell us the square footage of the tile needed until and unless he was awarded the contract. There was no way to get to a bottom line cost without understanding the cost of the tile. Despite being recommended by our plumber, we did not use him. Thatâ s when I went to Home Advisor. Home Advisor provided the names of several tile installers that had good reviews. Two of the three proposals were pretty unprofessional; to me they seemed as if they could have been prepared on a cocktail napkin. And they only saw one way to do the job. No inventiveness at all. We didnâ t use them. The third proposal was from Marble Effects. Mat came. He was inventive, seeking to minimize the cost. Nice. He fully explained the options we had, and explained the plusses and minuses of each. He clearly understood what we wanted, and what we needed. His proposal was truly professional. It specified his insurance coverage and his license number. It was clear. It was complete. We talked about it and he made a few adjustments. We chose Marble Effects. And weâ re glad we did. The work was completed today. Everything was nicely, carefully, and professionally done. It took a bit longer to complete than had originally proposed, but thatâ s OK because there was no rushing, nothing slapdash about everything Mat â and his father Hiram â did. Everything they did, they did carefully. They were always neat. They always took care to protect our property. They did it right. They explained what they were doing. They explained why they were doing it. They explained why, from time to time, the work had to pause to permit something to set and/or cure. Perfection -- itâ s clear from their attitudes and actions â is of primary importance to them. Nice. Multiple times during the course of the project Mat asked us if everything was OK; if there were any problems we had with anything Mat wanted to take care of it. (When was the last time any contractor did that? Never, in my lifetime.) Nice. And the price quoted in the beginning was the price I paid at the end. No extras. No additions. Nice."

"ABSOLUTE PERFECTION is the only way to describe the work done by Lajos. He installed new floors, refinished existing floors, replaced all of the doors and moldings, plus completely remodeled 2 bathrooms. In addition he repaired and fixed a lengthy list of other things in the house. EVERYTHING he did was done flawlessly with the most meticulous attention to detail. I cannot speak highly enough about the work he has done for me and I will DEFINITELY be hiring him back to do more projects on my house. He is extremely fast as well, but the most impressive thing is that he really takes pride in his work. I would definitely recommend him."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Uniform spacing between tiles is important for a professional and clean appearance. To achieve this spacing, tile spacers should be placed between the tiles and left in place until the mortar hardens and the tiles are secure. You can use X-shaped spacers vertically in between the tiles and laid flat at the corners.

The best trowel for penny tile is a 3/16-inch-by-5/32-inch V-notch trowel. Because of the small size of the penny tile, you want a trowel with small notches that can lay a thin layer of mortar on the surface you’re tiling. If the notches are too wide, you risk applying too thick of a layer of mortar, and it can squeeze out between the penny tiles.

The tile spacing you should use will depend on the tile and where you’re installing it. Choosing the right tile spacers to maintain a consistent gap between your tiles is tricky. Generally, tile spacing shouldn’t be less than 2 millimeters on walls and 3 millimeters on floors because of stress relief requirements. Getting it wrong can result in uneven tiles and early repairs.

If you want your ceramic tiles to be evenly spaced and installation to take less time, spacers are a crucial part of the installation process.

If you’re handling your tile removal yourself, seal the room using painter’s tape and heavy-duty contractor bags to prevent dust and shards from escaping. Use a claw hammer or a pry bar and a mallet to get behind the tile and pry it away from the floor or wall. Once your tiles are all removed, sweep everything into contractor bags for disposal, being careful not to overfill them. Make sure you wear a dust mask, safety goggles, and work gloves to keep yourself safe from injury while you work.
